Chapter 604: Chapter 74: The Counterattack of the Sword Sect_3
“Yes, erging from the Causality Tower is sothing unheard of; how can I easily believe it?” This ti, Shui Yue Pavilion Master did not pretend to be calm, but openly acknowledged.
After pausing, she said faintly, “I previously spoke frivolously, suggesting that the youngster should show his ability by slashing out the Causality True Intent with one sword, never expecting it to actually co true…”
“Sword technique and causality, indeed it is the way of the sword cultivator who has no regrets,” Shui Yue Pavilion Master lanted, “The thought process of sword cultivators truly cannot be asured by common standards.”
Lin Yao blinked and giggled, “Master, I think, prior to this, everyone who had an epiphany in the Causality Tower did so because it’s a thod for refining the mind, perhaps because those who entered were all spiritual cultivators.
“And refining the mind is a way of thinking unique to us spiritual cultivators, a path suited to us.”
“Maybe,” said Shui Yue Pavilion Master uncertainly.
“However,” Lin Yao, although happy that Lu Qingshan had gained sothing from the Causality Tower, still had so worries, “will he be able to make it in ti for the great competition at the Dao Establishnt?”
“The great competition at the Dao Establishnt has only started for half a day, and with the speed of a sword cultivator, he should be able to make it,” Shui Yue Pavilion Master first nodded her head, then shook it, “But what use is it to catch up?”
“Ah?”
“No matter how outstanding he is, he is just a Nascent Soul Cultivator, could he really defeat all other Nascent Soul Cultivators from the Six Domains by himself?” Shui Yue Pavilion Master whispered softly.
“Not possible for others, but not necessarily for him…” Lin Yao repeated her earlier words.
“It should… not be possible, right?” This ti, Shui Yue Pavilion Master was not as certain as before.
…
Nurturing Heart Platform.
“The eleventh magical combat, Central Spirit Domain wins.”
A green-robed sword cultivator walked back to the Eastern Domain cultivators’ ranks with a trace of reluctance, apologizing to Xi Xiang, “Uncle-Master, your disciple was incompetent… ”
Xi Xiang’s expression was calm, showing no trace of anger, and he even took the initiative to comfort the defeated disciple.
He then looked back at the people he had brought with him.
Only two who had not entered the fray remained now.
Keep in mind, only eleven matches of magical combat had concluded, less than twenty percent of the total, and already eight individuals from the Eastern Domain had been eliminated…
By this ti, even the cultivators watching the matches had noticed the undercurrents raging in the competition.
It was all too clear, the targeting of the Eastern Domain.
The Eastern Domain cultivators were all filled with righteous indignation.
But compared to the beneficiaries from the Six Domains, their voices were too faint.
This is the significance of an alliance, where ‘there’s safety in numbers.’
“Next up, Xue Hanfeng, it’s your turn to take the initiative and challenge on the stage.
“You are the strongest among the ten from the Eastern Domain this ti; with your strength, you can easily secure victory in this round of magical combat.
“Furthermore, even looking at all the cultivators, there are only a very few who can be sure to beat you.
“And these individuals are surely pivotal figures from their domains, who wouldn’t want to waste such strong competitors so early.”
Xi Xiang’s eyes flashed with brilliance as he said to Xue Hanfeng at his side, “After all, there are more than fifty rounds of magical combat to go, and revealing your hand too early will an you can’t last until the end, effectively throwing away a trump card.
“In such a scenario, they’re highly unlikely to take the initiative to challenge you.
“When the ti cos, you can freely choose your opponent, and you should set your sights on the cultivators from the Central Heavenly Realm. Eliminate as many of them as you can.”
“Our Eastern Domain being the first to be eliminated has beco a certainty. Once we step down, it will be ti for their six domains to struggle amongst themselves.
“I suspect that apart from the Central Heavenly Realm, the other five domains would be very pleased to see us targeting the Central Heavenly Realm.”
“The Central Heavenly Realm is leading the Six Domains Alliance this ti. Even if our Sword Sect fails, we must take a bite out of them,” Xi Xiang said fiercely.
Clearly, his heart was not as calm as his appearance suggested.
“I understand, Uncle-Master,” Xue Hanfeng’s eyes flashed with a cold light, replying coldly, his anger hardly less than Xi Xiang’s.
It’s like being ganged up on by others; you can’t fight back, but if you accept your beating, next ti these people will definitely bully you again.
But if you clench your teeth and manage to strike back at the ringleader while being surrounded and beaten, even if you are attacked severely, next ti soone wants to lay a hand on you, they would have to weigh their options carefully.
A loss cannot be taken for nothing.
This is the Sword Sect’s way of survival in the Cultivation World.
